🎵 Deep Purple - Lazy REACTION

[@wickedmirage]

That instrument in the beginning is Jon Lord's Hammond B-3 organ with its signal routed through a Marshall amplifier.

[@gj8683]

And run through a fuzz box during part of it, I'm pretty sure.

[@TubetakerBHV]

@@gj8683 the distortion came from the Marshall amp. Another effect came from the Leslie speakers Lord are famous for.

[@larteonceagain]

Don't fortet his ring modulator! He bought 6 at the same time so he would have enough if they stopped manufacturing them, he had 3 left still when he retired from Purple. Good quality, considering:-)

[@JulioLeonFandinho]

Lord used a thing called Maestro ring modulator, which can modify and mix 2 different frequences... that's how he got that distorted sound similar to a fuzz sound, which is typical for electric guitars

[@jackgilchrist]

@TubetakerBHV Sure, but I see where @G J is coming from. The tone in some parts sounds quite a bit fuzzier than others, or than he usually sounds. I doubt there's any pedal involved though. I'm thinking it's a drawbar setting.

[@jimmyjothemojounplugged5687]

That's the curse for someone being really good at something. They make the difficult look easy. Way back in high school a friend of mine was a drummer, and every time he tried playing any Deep Purple, he'd get too excited and start playing too fast and screw everything up.

[@clydekio5108]

Not a guitar it's an organ. Later a guitar kicks in. Deep Purple was one of the great bands that merged Keyboard and Guitar together to make fantastic music. One of my earliest rock album s was a Deep Purple album. I was 16 or 17 years old and it just came out with. Man I feel old but privileged to be alive then with all of the great hard rock groups being formed back in the late 60's early 70's. And as always I love you guys. Stay cool, rock on.

[@raymondreid4987]

Jon Lord has this unique ability to make you take a trip in your mind.I don't know how he creates all theses incredible sounds from his organ, synthesizer keyboards just amazing how he keeps his mind so focused on everything he does and still stands up there and rocks that instrument back and forth while keeping time he's just incredible.

[@concernedcitizen-1958]

What a jam! Deep Purple with Buddy Miles @ the Sam Houston Coliseum in Houston 1972 was my first concert at the tender age of 13. Thanks Brad & Lex!✌️ ☮️ 🎵🎶🎼🎸

[@MultiGavone]

Brad and Lex, I'm 68 and saw Deep Purple, mach 2 and mach 3 and Led Zeppelin in a 3 year time frame from 72 to 75. Those two groups were our favorites and still are. BTW the open of Lazy is the great Jon Lord on organ, not Blackmore on guitar who comes in later. Deep Purple played nearly 2 hours and Led always played 3 + hours both times. Incredible bands, no computers just pure genius!

[@jeffjohansen6881]

From what I have heard, when it came to songwriting, that version of Deep Purple would start with a riff and build a song around it, and then add lyrics after the fact. Deep Purple is one of those bands that you should listen to the live versions after you hear the studio version. You'll then realize how much the studio versions were really just a framework for them to play off of in their live shows. Check out 'Lazy' from the Made in Japan double live album to hear how different it is from the original version that came out just a year prior to when they recorded the studio version.

[@vicprovost2561]

No doubt they were on another level live, Highway Star is a classic in studio but on Made in Japan it is super nova, exploding in your headphones.

[@littleogeechee223]

[@brianfisher6165]

One of the greatest bands of all time!!! Organ was the first instrument!👌👌👍👍✌✌😁😁

[@LynnThompsonAuthor]

Ooh, been waiting for y'all to do this one! Best Deep Purple song ever! And that instrument that starts it off is an organ, not a guitar. The guitar comes in later. They introduced swing into a rock song, for one of the first-ever rock-jazz fusions. Fusion became big in the '70s with a lot of top guitarists. And this has one of the catchiest riffs in it. Love this song! The entire Machine Head album was awesome! Hard to believe it came out in 1972.

[@davidgoza5620]

Rumor has it that they made this song so Ritchie and Jon could riff off each other on stage. One of their best songs by the real Deep Purple line-up. (The other line-ups were good, but this is who I think of when I think Deep Purple.)

[@jonmarretta2459]

Saw them on that tour, paid five dollars, the original Fleetwood Mac was the warm up band. Peter Green was the original lead guitarist

[@loudog2326]

[@vickirecord5534]

Lex is almost always right on with identifying instruments. Shocking to see her mistake Jon Lord's organ for a guitar. Don Arey with the current Purple is great, but I do miss Jon Lord.

[@ronaldelliott4373]

That’s spot on Lynn. Much of “Purples” flavor was swing. Ian Paice (Paicey) was and is one of the greatest swing/rock drummers around. His wrist and stick speed was always a big part of their choices in tempo, not to mention their sound. Regards 🤘😎

I saw their review of Child in Time and they didn’t seem too stoked on it- I think they should watch the live in 1970 version to truly appreciate it!

[@johngeer4557]

Yup, a few times they have passed the live versions when they should have done them, no biggy they are still music kids. Many more years for them to get the better versions. Lazy live has a master guitar solo that i just love. Child in time on the other hand is like night and day, the release i don't care for much, that live version is near unequaled. Maybe what 5-7 better live songs ever? maybe? either way the error richie makes mid way in seems to force him to pick it up, and then blows the doors off the solo. Ian's work is even better to, but seeing it, is just so totally different. Maybe they will do it some day, and start trying some TOM WAITS. Why people pass him up is beyond me, radio is so sold out, it makes Tom look like a god of art.

[@notgivennotgiven7776]

The local church organist composed a version of Child in Time for my uncles funeral. He was a huge Deep Purple fan ever since the 60's. I was already on the verge of crying, but the way he performed it on the church organ broke me and everyone else in attendance. Such a special song.

It's Hammond, I think. This song is so awesome in that it really allowed the band to individually showcase their incredible musicianship!

[@DivaInTheWoods]

I love when you react to 60s music. I was born in '68. I have a wide range of music knowledge across genres and decades, but I'm finding there's a lot of 60s music I didn't know existed. I'm very familiar with huge chunks of libraries like Zeppelin, Simon & Garfunkel or Van Morrison. But for the most part, I may recognize a song but not know the artist. In the case of 'Deep Purple', I know a couple of their most popular tunes, but I see there many I never knew about. This is one of those. I love their sound, so this encourages me to continue my music journey. It is so much easier than it used to be with the help of YT! Another 60s band I found (by following a guy on Twitter who posts daily music polls) is 'Traffic'. I think you've listened to one of their songs recently. I only recognized 2-3 of their songs that I've checked out so far. They have an incredible sound, especially for the 60s! Anyway, keep covering every genre and every decade! I love watching your expressions to songs I feel passionately about. It's just an added bonus when you do one I've never heard before. I enjoy seeing how my emotional reactions align with B&L. It's actually exciting to get a first listen to a song over 40 or 50 years old! I'm pretty sure the wiring of musical pleasure in the brain looks almost identical between me & Lex. Most music lovers probably feel like that as well. We all love it when we find others who feel music like we do!!

[@cayminlast]

Awesome, this was our music when I was a teenager back when this album was released. Thanks guys.

[@barriehull7076]

Deep Purple are an English rock band formed in London in 1968. Originally formed as a psychedelic rock and progressive rock band, they shifted to a heavier sound with their 1970 album Deep Purple in Rock. Deep Purple, together with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, have been referred to as the "unholy trinity of British hard rock and heavy metal in the early to mid- seventies". Unholy should really be holy cow, how and why are they all so good.

[@markburnham7512]

Eric Clapton used to say (regarding Cream) that the songs were just excuses for endless soloing. This song is a good example of that notion. For the record I'm a big fan of endless soloing. Flaunt it if you've got it.
